How do belief systems create both conflict and cooperation ?

1 answer:

7 0

there are some aspects of religion that make it susceptible to being a latent source of conflict. All religions have their accepted dogma, or articles of belief, that followers must accept without question. This can lead to inflexibility and intolerance in the face of other beliefs. After all, if it is the word of God, how can one compromise it? At the same time, scripture and dogma are often vague and open to interpretation. Therefore, conflict can arise over whose interpretation is the correct one, a conflict that ultimately cannot be solved because there is no arbiter. The winner generally is the interpretation that attracts the most followers. However, those followers must also be motivated to action. Although, almost invariably, the majority of any faith hold moderate views, they are often more complacent, whereas extremists are motivated to bring their interpretation of God's will to fruition.

Yes, things such as polluting the air with fossil fuels (not natural) and things like building factories or something as simple as throwing garbage in the oceans have a major affect. everything is like a butterfly effect, one small action can have a drastic outcome. people now a days are inventing numerous amounts of things and damaging our ecosystems. as the years go on and things like this keep happening, our world will start to get hit with those outcomes. right now we are experiencing them, with hot temperatures and less fish in the ocean and polar ice caps melting.

Weather is affected by the amount of oxygen or water in the air

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Dissolved Oxygen and Water. Although water molecules contain an oxygen atom, this oxygen is not what is needed by aquatic organisms living in natural waters. A small amount of oxygen, up to about ten molecules of oxygen per million of water, is actually dissolved in water. Oxygen enters a stream mainly from the atmosphere .

Explanation:

I want to investigate how temperature affect the concentration of oxygen in air as it will affect how much oxygen we inhale per breathe. Oxygen by percent composition in air is 20.95%. However, the oxygen concentration/density in air varies due to the expansion of gas particles and varies inversely wth temperature according to P/RT=n/V.
